Nice product , seems heavier than I thought it might be. Has a good quality bag to use to carry around with shoulder strap so you don't actually feel the weight so good news. The tripod is lovely well made great quality and holds my Nikon Coolpix p1000 very well and is sturdy would recommend

Really impressed, very good quality

don't know what I expected with this really, but having now used it for a while I thought I'd write a review. First off, it is a reasonable height, folds to a very compact size, is lightweight and fairly sturdy with my Panasonic G9 and even the long 100-300 zoom lens fully extended. It does feel a little rough around the edges in some parts if you compare it to a £300 product, but how can you complain at this price. The Ball-head is good, not brilliant but it does the job. It's fully arca-swiss compatible and takes my Peak Design capture plates perfectly. And of course you can replace the head if you like. It comes in a neat bag with the head covered by a velvet bag. One minus point - there is no pocket in the bag to hold the allen key, tripod mount, double connector and small extension tube which are supplied. That means they can be easily lost. I keep them in the velvet bag and leave parts at home unless I think I'll be using them. The monopod option is great and works well but you will need some of the parts in the bag so again - a pocket would have made it perfect. Then again, you can buy tripod bags separately This tripod has so many features and functions, and whilst it is a little clumsy and fiddly in how it does them - it does do them! Again, at the price you can't complain. You can invert the central column for working close to the ground, or swing it perpendicular to the ground for top down product shots. The legs are individually adjustable so even on uneven ground you can get it level. When you clamp the camera into a certain position there is a little movement so you do have to be careful and adjust a couple of times to get the perfect framing - this is a sign of the cheaper product but again it is minor. I also wanted a travel tripod but to be honest I'm struggling to find one which packs more compactly than this (39cm) or is significantly lighter (1.6Kg - 1638 grams to be precise) even when looking at carbon fibre Overall, I'd happily stand this up against products twice the price, or even more. A slightly better bag and slightly better ballhead would make this the product of the year for sure.

I’ll start this review with a warning, my reviews are usually pretty long and detailed, but I like to write my reviews in a way that will help other buyers, particularly when buying from relatively unknown or overseas companies.This was my first purchase from this company and I must say that I am genuinely very impressed. It wasn’t strictly a ‘blind’ purchase because I had the good fortune of finding their company stand at this year’s (2019) Photography Show at the NEC in Birmingham, UK.Whilst there, I had the opportunity to handle and have a play with a few of their different tripods and lens filters. I then left without making a purchase whilst I mulled over what kit I’d like to upgrade.I am a keen amateur photographer and so I have a limited budget for my kit and have been ‘making do’ with a cheap tripod that I’ve had for years, and has been subject to far too many repairs over the years, so I decided that it was time for improvements!I ordered this tripod and it arrived within 2 days and it was really well packaged. Inside the box, I found that the tripod and accessories were contained in a sturdy, but conveniently sized, carry bag with handles. (See photos). The bag contained the tripod with a ball head in a very snazzy, velvety, protective draw string bag. There was also a shoulder strap for the carry bag and a small bag containing adaptors, instructions and an ‘Allen’ key to tighten the tripod legs if necessary.Upon lifting the tripod out of the bag, it immediately feels solid, robust and clearly great quality. In its fully folded position, the tripod is approximately 15” long and fits neatly in the carry bag without a struggle! To put the tripod straight to use, you simply pull all 3 legs downwards and the red aluminium locking clips, at the top of each leg, lock the legs in their first position, with the central column fully extended. A simple ¼ turn of the rubber coated central locking nut, by hand, allows the central column to drop into its most stable position.Each of the legs on the tripod have sections which can be quickly and easily extended, and locked into position, by means of a ¼ turn of the rubber coated locking nuts at the top of each section.The red aluminium locking clip, at the top of each leg, can then be used to change the splay of the legs to one of three set positions and beyond. To increase stability, when the legs are extended, the base of the central column has a spring loaded hook fitted that you can hang your camera bag or a weight from for more piece of mind if you need to leave the tripod unattended.I connected the shoe to the base of Nikon D300 (one of my heavier cameras) and the ball head had absolutely no problem supporting it.A couple of twists, by hand, of the various locking screws on the head and I was able to extend the central column before rotating it through 90 degrees (see photos). At this point, and purely for the purposes of this review, I left the centre column in its fully extended position with the camera still fitted to it. I was very pleasantly surprised to see that it easily supported the heavy DSLR in this, normally, very unstable position! (see photos).After returning the centre column back to a vertical position, you just need to unscrew, by hand, the base of the centre column to allow it to be replaced upside down so that your camera can be underslung on the tripod. This is absolutely ideal for macro and pet photography and adds further stability with the camera mounted to it.One of my favourite features of this tripod is the ability to quickly remove one of the legs so that it can be used as a monopod!! Anything that means that I can carry less kit with me is always a winner, in my view! To do this, simply unscrew the top of the leg, with the convenient rubber hand grip fitted to it, and attach the centre column or head to it using the provided screw adaptor. This is a quick and easy operation and just as quick and easy to reverse.All in all, I’m absolutely over the moon with this tripod. A lot of thought has clearly gone into its design and it is clearly built to last. Its outstanding quality, and very competitive price, means that this will be just one of many products that I’ll purchase from K&F Concept. I would most definitely recommend this product for photographers, videographers and vloggers alike.

Very impressed with this product, needed a new tripod for ages, it’s light weight, but stable, with quite a few different set ups, making it a very versatile product, not had chance to use it out in the field, though have used it around home, the ball heads are very smooth and feels good when panning. I would highly recommend this tripod, the only reason I gave it 4 stars is because one of the leg locking mechanism is very fiddly, need two hands to release it.

Super strong tripod, smooth pan head, does everything they say it does, looked at thd reviews first, and wasn't disappointed. Awesome a+++

Wow! That should say it all. This is the best tripod I have ever owned. My Manfrotto is going on Gumtree. Sorry Manny. I've also got a no name pan and tilt that doesn't even come close. I am 100 percent happy with it. The articulated boom is something I never thought I would need, now I don't know how I managed without it. A great buy at an unbelievable price.

Was looking for another tripod with a removable head so I can fit my Manfrotto fluid head onto. The tripod is super compact, lightweight and sturdy.This tripod has allowed me to do overhead shots and amazingly it's holding my Panasonic GH5, but obviously you have to make sure you have the supporting leg in the same direction.Overall I'm very happy with it and it's so versatile for many different scenarios.

I've had a few different tripods over the years at different price points but this is by far the best!Being a wedding and lifestyle photographer I use it in so many different settings and it doesn't fail! Each leg is individually adjustable meaning no matter the terrain you can make it level and sturdy.I love that all the connectors move so smoothly and the whole kit is incredibly robust and yet very lightweight. It all folds up neatly into the one bag/case that I've shown in the photos.The top arm can extend to a 90 degree angle which is brilliant for taking photos of flat lays etc without the legs of the tripod being in shot.Another little extra that I like is a small spirit level on the top connector just so you can make sure everything is level before you attach your camera.The tripod has a wieght hook underneath for added sturdiness in extreme conditions and one of the legs also detaches to become a monopod!Overall this tripod is an excellent bit of kit and I have been very impressed with every aspect of it especially at under £100!So if you're looking for a reliable and versatile tripod this is the one for you!

This tripod is a beast! Whilst it may not have the name "Manfrotto" or "3 Legged Thing" all over it, it is more than capable for it's price point!Having switched to this from a similarly priced Manfrotto, albeit a much smaller tripod I am initially surprised with the similarly in quality.Whilst the Manfrotto feels ever so slightly more refined, the K&F blows it out the park with height, versatility and ease of use!I always found the Manfrotto locking mechanisms very small, fidgety and likely to give me small blisters from repeated adjustment. Whereas the K&F model has comfortably sized levers/screws.The ability to dettach one leg and use it as a monopod is an excellent addition and the additional grip on this leg is nicely positioned and very comfortable.The ability to move the main central point to a over the top arm for top down/lay flat is amazing! This creates much more potential, and having all this in ONE tripod is a bonus.Overall this tripod feels very well built and feels like it will stand the test of time!There are only three cons I can find!- The included bag is not the greatest of materials and the added shoulder strap has plastic vs metal clips. However if your dedicated camera bag has space for a tripod this isn't an issue.- The twist locks on each leg are plastic, however they do feel very strong and not flimsy at all. Being used to aluminium locks on the Manfrotto tripod I noticed this immediately.- The springs that hold ratchet locks on each leg tight are a little flimsy, again being used to a different mechanism on the Manfrotto this bares no effect on quality and durability. If anything they are actually easier to release as the spring isn't extremely stiff!Who would I recommend this to?Anyone! This tripod is capable of meeting the needs of all photographers at all levels in my opinion! Whilst it may not be as rugged as some higher end brands, the fact remains that it is of very high quality and packed full of features. 10/10 for me.
